    So here's the quick dirty version. My goal is to have a solid mid travel setup. Ext coil overs in the front. Burg uppers and I already have wheelers front bumps. For the rear I want to do a ride rite bag with the day star cup. I'd like increased travel In the rear so it can keep up with the front. Front I'm aiming for 2inches lift. 1 inch in the rear. I won't be able to do the front for a good while. I'll be Doing the rear first. the front will get used 5100's set at 1.75 for the time being. Eventually I'll get a new rear leaf pack but for now it's staying stock. From what I understand to get better travel out back ill have to ditch the stock shock mounts. Which is fine I can weld. So what I need help with. Is what mount's do I need to get. And what shock to work with them and 1-2 inches lift. I'm thinking the BAMF shock relocation Towers and then king 2.5's I have an extra inch offset over stock so I hope it would clear a 2.5. Please and thank you for opinions and advice.

    I'm also considering doing 5160's and just the bags and cups. The truck hardly sees anything more then rough forest service roads. How good is the Valving on the Billy's?

    I have a set of 5160's with the billet clamps on them I will be selling sometime here. They have about 2k miles on them. If you're interested in saving a couple $ off of new shoot me a PM with an offer.

    I went with icon resi's in the back. I also put in dakars but took out a overload spring. Rides very nice IMO.
